One Of the serious mistakes in road
making is to pIow up the side bitches

manure. which the rains have washed
or the road-bcd into them. back into
the center Of the driveway. This
stuff sod. sand and loam--is utterly
destructive Of the foundation Of the
road. The first rains convert this
loose organic material into slough OF

into the ditch. In dry season it be-
comes a perfect bed Of dust. annoying

and about rs bad as the mud itself.
The surveyor who allows the iniquity
ought to be complained Of as an enemy
% society. II is surely destructive TO
any good road. and il would be better
economy for the town to throw the
money directly into the ditch and let it
lie there.
Another serious and very common
mistake i the neglect TO remove the
small. loose. rolling stones which in
dry time are sure TO work up to the
surface u many badly constructed
roads. This Is so easy and simple
matter. and can be so rapidly done
with garden rake, and by cheap and
unskilled labor, that any town Is quite
objectionable for ncglccting it. Even
very surc-footcd. horse is liable TO
stumble over these rolling stones, and
they make a road positively danger

falling to remove them promptly and
often.
Another great mistake Is in making

Competitive examinations are on
their trial in this country and the APP
parent results do not always favor
them; but wherever an accurate rec
ord extending over q number OF years
can be secured the balance is generally
in their favor. At West Point, in. the
ten years 1873-82, 900 appointees
passed the entrance examination OF
whom 432 were appointed after a
competitive examination and 567 for
the various forms OF favoritism which
influence congressman and the presi-
dent in giving this appointment. OF
the former SO per cent. graduated,
and of the latter 45 per cent, so that
the proportion of those passing was
nearly one-half larger in the former
case. The test counts for more when
it is remembered that the examine
tions at West Point are more severe
than in any other institution in the
country and the training and require
ments combine a demand for physical
development and ability as well as
forintellectual progress.

The drouth in some portions Of
Texas, which was so severe last year,
still continues, and great suffering is
reported. Milk and butler are scarce.
Lean kline are as common as fat ones
once were, and unless it rains soon
the people will be brought to starva-
tion. The number of dead and dying
cattle is very great. They are dying
SO fast that the farmers cannot skin
them all, but the hide market is quite
low. There is in many portions OF
the country absolutely no range, and
would not be for some weeks, though
it should rain at once. Texas grass
is hard to devitalize, but the months
OF drouth have proved too much for
it. There is a consequent strong TN
easiness in stock circles, and specula-

According to the report to

According to the report to the
stockholders in the Eastern railroad,
the awful casualty which occurred on
it's line, at Revere, Mass, several years
ago, "resulted in a loss to the corpo-
ration OF $51O,6OO in round numbers,
including personal damages, the de-
struction of ears and engines and the
cost allreplacements." These figures
naturally attracted the serious atten-
tion Of those interested in the net f.
nancial results of the company's busi-
ness, and it is noticeable that the line
has been much freer from such expen-
sive episodes ever since. They con-
cluded that it is much cheaper to pre-.
vent accidents by better equipment,
increased facilities and greater vigi-
lance on the part of operatives than to
settle the money damages OF single
calamity, which would swallow up the
distributive profits for a year or
more.

1t appears that Germany, Austria.
Russia, England, and some other
countries are rapidly extending their
canal systems, Notwithstanding the
pre-eminence OF the present period as
a railroad era, and that, in respect
to the extent of freight or commercial
water routes, America is relatively
far behind Europe. Thus, France is
at present engaged on four great wa.
ter-ways, for which sum equal to
$2OO,0O0,OOO has been appropriated,
and which will, in fact, cost a. much
larger sum; Germany and Russia are
constructing canal from the Baltic
to the North Sea; England is making
canals at immense cost, from London
to Liverpool and Bristol, and from
Manchester to Liverpool; while Can
ada is spending a million dollars to

A Tweed "Reminiscences.

William M. Tweed's daughter, Mrs
Mary Amelia Maginnis, the wife OF Ar
thur Ambrose Maginnis, died recently
in New Orleans. She was married in
the fall of 1869, while Tweed was at,
the zenith OF his power. The wedding
was magnificent one, it's most nota-
bic feature being the extraordinary
presents received by the bridal couple.
Their total value reached nearly $780,
600. Every politician and contract
or who was favored Or hoped to be
favored by Tweed did his full share
to make the event wonderful af-
fair. Tweed lived plainly in Thir-
ty-sixth street and his daughter
was married there. He was then
merely deputy commissioner
of public works, which, singularly
enough, was the highest office he ever
held in the city government. He was
then in complete control of Everything,
however. The wedding was celebrated
in the afternoon, and the city depart
ment were almost as much deserted as
if it were holiday. The house was
almost packed with wedding presents.
Peter B. Sweeney gave the bride a
diamond bracelet worth $1,000.
prince HaP' Genet contributed a
$4,000 diamond cross. Charles e..
Loew gave pearl set worth $3.50. A
coral set and watch worth at least
$4,000 were the offering of Cornelius
Corson. James Mcsweeny gave dia-
mond bracelets worth $1,000, and
eddie" Boyle followed with another
$1,000 worth of pearls. Aneckla and
chain worth 81, 500 came from James
Ryan, and superintendent Kelso paid
$1,000 for apunch bowl. Sheriff Bren-
nan spent half that sum for silver
spoons, and Thomas J. Creamer gave
silver ware worth 81 900. Agold chain
with diamond pendant cost Senator
Norton ST, 500. Charles HI. Hall, =.
II. Tooker, "Jim" Fisk, Jr., John
Garvey, Frank Voorhees,, Andrew J..
Garvey, Eugene Durvin and w. w.
Watson all gave presents of the value
of $500 each. Cameo sleeve-buttons
worth 81, 900 were the gift of John
McB. Davidson, chain and diamond.
locket worth $4,000 came from Judge.
John Cox, and Hugh Smith presented
another that cost him 5000. Judge,
George Barnard spent ", 900 for a.
diamond necklace and 'Ed" Kearney
put another 81, 900 into an emerald
set. Tweed himself gave Mrs. Magin-.
mis- a large check and a house
in New Orleans, dnd the Fathers
and the Americus Clubs gave pres
ents estimated at,$4, 900. This was
